Path and Inspiration
I hand build sculptural objects. The results, regardless of form, have character and a sense of self as I try to project life and personality into my work. I make non-human creatures, “the other” that is alien yet familiar. My latest work is inspired by gargoyles. These stone carved medieval creatures come in a huge variety of hybrid animal, human and demonic forms but the reason for their appearance is a mystery,Process and Practice
I had a successful career in engineering and commerce. A few years ago I became obsessed with ceramics and sculpture, so I gave up work and did a Ceramics HND at Morley College (2022) and now spend my days working in my studio.
My work is all hand-built, carved, constructed from slip-cast components and/or slabs. I like to experiment with form and technique.
